A monkey with a Rs 21,000 bounty on its head was finally caught yesterday after two weeks of terror in Madhya Pradesh's Rajgarh town during which it attacked 20 people.
Last evening, a rescue team called in from Ujjain teamed up with local officials and local residents to catch the ferocious monkey on the prowl. The team used a drone to locate the monkey, managed to tranquilise it using darts and then put it in a cage.
Visuals from the spot showed dramatic scenes: a crowd raised Jai Shri Ram and Jai Bajrang Bali slogans as the forest department staff carried the tranquilised monkey in a net to an animal rescue vehicle. Later, when it came back to its senses, the monkey was seen
Terror in the area due to the monkey's attacks can be gauged by the visual of a man keeping guard on his home's terrace with a gun.
